Victoria’s proposed work-from-home laws are facing strong opposition from the business community.
A new survey shows nearly half of Victorian businesses may shift future investment to other Australian states.
Many employers also warn the changes could reduce local hiring, especially for younger and less experienced workers.
The new laws would give eligible employees the right to work from home up to two days a week from September.
Business groups say the policy will increase costs, create legal uncertainty, and hurt productivity.
The Victorian Government insists the reforms will boost flexibility, improve productivity, and support working families.
